Happy New Preprint Friday!* Thrilled to share new results in collab with Sarah Lichenstein & @yiplab.bsky.social showing our brain's functional connections reflect the environments we grow up in!

*can this be a thing??

Amazing opportunity to work at the intersection of complex clinical psychiatry and advanced neuroimaging research!!!

Been thinking for a few years about what I call the *replication ceiling*: the maximum replicability of an effect given constraints in data in which replication takes place (power, measurement error, sampling variability, etc). This leads to a maximum theoretical replicability which can be achieved.

Take a look at our paper! Led by @francimandi.bsky.social in the Lake lab: "Longitudinal, simultaneous wide-field fluorescent Ca2+ imaging and fMRI in awake mice" !!!!

Really interesting, brief ideas paper. Clearly relevant to treatment research-- the mechanism by which you leave an illness state is unlikely to just be the opposite of the mechanism by which you entered it (can see how this might apply to e.g. SSRIs in depression).

Check out the latest work from this superstar team to learn how you can go from big data to small data with transfer learning to advance precision psychiatry!

Anybody else worried that because of the long standing Republican war on SNAP people are going to experience painful hunger. Lets do something. @nanopharmnc.bsky.social and i are going to donate to some local nc food banks. Join us! Gonna match up to $500.

From big to small: Emerging methods for enhancing precision psychiatry through transfer learning Identifying reliable links between individual differences in neurobiological features and differences in symptom profiles or treatment outcomes is a primary goal of precision psychiatry.

Impulsivity and neuroticism share distinct functional connectivity signatures with alcohol-use risk in youth - Molecular Psychiatry Molecular Psychiatry - Impulsivity and neuroticism share distinct functional connectivity signatures with alcohol-use risk in youth

New paper from @annierhcheng.bsky.social

using data from IMAGEN and ABCD she identifies distinct signatures of impulsivity and negative affect in youth that uniquely overlap with a neuromarker of risky alcohol use
